    The aesthetic is fine with me. It’s the 6- and 7-figure repair bills that would keep me away.

    Only non-witches get due process.

      My photoshop eye caught that the night photos are fake. Photoshopped of the previous image. Weird.

        Ok, I am going to say it. I effin hate FLW designs. Can’t stand them. They look like James Bond Villain Lairs. Horrible. Do you know how many times I have been dragged to Fallingwater? 16. Sixteen agonizing trips totaling 35 hours of my life gone.

              Scouts
              School trip
              Mom
              Aunt
              Scouts again
              2nd Aunt
              School trip again
              Sister’s new MIL
              Mom again
              Girlfriend’s mom
              Other sister’s MIL
              Sister’s friend
              College Girlfriend
              Drunk trip with college friends when the ski weekend was a bust since it was too warm (don’t plan and reserve cabins 3 months in advance)
              Mom again
              And an outside visit to point it out to Lucas. Didn’t count it since we didn’t go inside.

                  You are too nice. Other than my mom, I would have just paid for the cab fare for my relatives to go.

                    I don't understand the appeal of these houses, either. They're self-conscious, and a bit up-themselves, and don't look like homes at all.

                    I was only joking

                      Bunch of wussies who don't know awesome when they see it.

                      If I ever won a big lottery payout, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

                                  While FLW provided many ideas for trends, much of it wasn't practical for the real world - a bit like couture fashion.

                                    Every single day I see office and commercial buildings based on Wright’s designs being torn down. Thank God… 70 years too late, but it’s something…
